Will Someone Please Punish Bad Drivers Who Kill People

Any frequent pedestrian knows what it’s like to dodge cars. It’s a humbling experience imagining your body and a steel beast colliding. Time and time again, bad drivers are given a slap on the wrist if they kill people. Unless of course, they are drunk and then they are punished severely. It doesn’t make much sense to those who have lost love ones.

A West Seattle rabbi was sentenced to 500 hours of community service, ordered not to drive for two years and fined $500 Thursday for hitting former Seattle City Council aide Mathew “Tatsuo” Nakata with his car and killing him.

Schwartz has had multiple traffic violations in the past four years. In May 2005, about 18 months before he hit Nakata, Schwartz hit a woman riding a bike, injuring her. He hit Nakata in November 2006.

About two months later, Schwartz was cited for running a red light. He argued that the road was icy, and the ticket was reduced to $69.

How many more lives have to be taken before this man is stopped? You can kill 10 people in this country and receive no punishment.
